TestBench Defect Service

Introduction

A lightweight REST API service for imbus TestBench that provides a unified interface for creating and synchronising defects with external defect tracking systems.

Features

• Multiple clients: JSONL files for testing/offline use, or Jira Cloud and Data Center via REST API
• Unified REST API: a single API surface regardless of the underlying defect tracker
• Interactive setup wizard: testbench-defect-service init generates a complete config in seconds
• Swagger UI: built-in interactive API docs at /docs
• Per-project overrides: field mappings and configuration per project key
• Pre/post sync hooks: run shell commands before or after sync operations
• HTTPS & mTLS: optional TLS and mutual TLS for production deployments
• Extensible: implement AbstractDefectClient to connect any defect tracker
